Loranthus igneus

Loranthus igneus, also known as Red Mistletoe or Fire Mistletoe, is a type of parasitic plant that grows on the branches of certain trees, particularly in Australia and parts of Asia.

The plant has been used in traditional medicine for its medicinal properties, which include anti-inflammatory and antiviral compounds.

Loranthus igneus has been reported to have various health benefits, including reducing fever, alleviating respiratory issues, and exhibiting antimicrobial and antifungal activities.
